      Server Description

      An arm64 memory-optimized platform featuring 192 dedicated physical cores and 1.5 TB of RAM for high-throughput database and caching workloads.

      Memory OptimizedGeneral Purpose

      Amazon Web Services r8gb.48xlarge is an arm64 memory-optimized server powered by 192 dedicated AWS Graviton Neoverse-V2 physical cores running at 2.7 GHz. It features 1536.0 GB of RAM, providing a high memory-to-core ratio of 8.0 GB per core, and operates on the Nitro hypervisor with a 200 Gbps baseline network bandwidth. The instance does not include local storage or GPU hardware. In benchmark evaluations, the r8gb.48xlarge demonstrates top-tier multi-core CPU performance, exceptional memory bandwidth, and high database operation throughput. However, single-core performance remains average, and image processing represents a relative bottleneck. This hardware profile is suited for memory-intensive workloads, including large-scale database operations, Redis caching, software compilation, and high-throughput web serving.

      Workload Profiles

      9.56Score
      Precomputed compound score for Cache Intensive workloads. A weighted average (geometric mean) of benchmark scores compared to their medians: score = ∏ (x_i / m_i)^(w_i / Σw). The score of 1.0 represents a synthetic baseline server with the median performance of each component benchmark; 0.5 means roughly half the performance; and 2.0 means twice the performance of that reference profile. Component weights: 50% Redis RPS (pipeline=1, SET), 20% Redis RPS (pipeline=16, SET), 10% PassMark Memory Mark (composite), 10% Memory bandwidth (read, 16 MB ~ L3), 10% PassMark single-thread CPU. Rationale for component selection: In-memory key-value store workload, mixing direct Redis performance metrics with memory speed and latency benchmarks, and single-core CPU performance profiles.
